JK Rowling was "Christian by conviction, is Christian in her mode of living, even in her way of writing."
Rowling said as much herself in an interview with Vancouver Sun in 2000. It "seems to offend the religious right far worse than if I said I thought there was no God," she commented, and added that it suited her not discuss her faith too freely because, otherwise, "I think the intelligent reader, whether 10 or 60, will be able to guess what's coming in the books."

Yes, well I think she's significantly more intelligent that her average critic.
Yeah, and having read The Deathly Hallows, now, I'm sure she's right. I guessed correctly about some of the plot elements. Like the deal between Snape and Dumbledore. My horcruxes idea was off though: however, I still think that self-sacrifice would have made an interesting 'power source' for horcruxes.
